Leonid D. Kizim
Leonid Kizim was selected as a cosmonaut in 1965.  His first mission was in 1980 when he served as the commander on Soyuz T-3.  Kizim was then given command of Soyuz T-10 in 1984, this was the third resident crew of the Salyut 7 space station.  His final flight came in 1986 when he commanded Soyuz T-15.  This was the first resident crew of the Mir space station.  The crew of Soyuz T-15 also made history when they visited Salyut 7 during their mission making them the only crew to live on two space stations on the same flight.  Kizim retired in 1987 having logged 374 days in space.
